After 30 years of Diana-watching, I must say that this picture is completely new to me. I'd seen a more more distant version of it; and I think that it was taken during their engagement, when Prince Charles and Lady Diana visited the estate of the Marquess of Cholmondeley

To think that 25 years ago, noone in their right mind would even consider wearing a helmet when skiing. But the head band does look sufficient to prevent head injuries :-)

I don't think so. Domenica Monckton was born with Down's Syndrome and in the early 90s. It makes my blood boil that so many normal children are deemed to have special needs | Mail Online
This picture looks like it might have been taken in the mid-80s.

I think that article is right on. Medication for children is just out of control, imo.

I love how there's a 'trend' if you will when it comes to exceptionalities. All of a sudden all children who are shy and tend to stick to the same thing are labeled as 'having autism' and all those who are hyper have ADHD. It's mind-boggling. What people have to realize is that one size doesn't fit all, and that each child is an individual, whether there's an exceptionality or not.

Yeah totally agree... Every year they are "inventing" new so-called syndromes for children, it gives me the shivers... The son of my cousin, A., has been diagnosed with hyper-activity and has been fed with psycho-medications for years... He was about four/five years old... Looking at his family background and seeing that his father abandoned him, his mother was 17 and didn't want him, his maternal grandparents were highly abusive with their daughter (they would beat up A.'s mother) it was pretty simple to understand that all A. was craving was attention and a loving environment... And certainly not medications... Sorry for the grunt but this subject really upsets me.
